It was a re-creation of a Botticelli - but nobody got to see Jerry's botty.

Model Jerry Hall posed as Venus in a tableau of the artist's most famous work.

But the star did not come out of her shell enough to dispense with her clothes, as she posed in a window for top London store Selfridge's.

Instead, Hall kept her white gown on, unlike the subject of the Florence-born artist's The Birth Of Venus, who was naked but preserved her modesty with her flowing locks.

Hall appeared in the window display to launch the Oxford Street department store's month-long Body Craze theme. The store is celebrating the human body in a variety of ways over the coming days, with exhibitions, performances and a tattoo studio.
